After Awakening the System, I Became the Ultimate Villain and Slapped the Female Lead Right at the Start - Chapter 1:

Chapter 1: Super Villain Awakens the System, Slaps the Female Lead at the Start.

“What is this…”

The blinding lights made Xie Mingyu feel dizzy for a moment.

He had been lying on his bed reading an online novel called Carefree Metropolis. For some reason, he suddenly found himself inside a luxurious private room.

Everything in the room felt both familiar and unfamiliar.

Across from him sat two women. One was a woman in her thirties, the other around twenty, breathtakingly beautiful.

“Brother Mingyu, please sign the contract.”

The young woman handed him a contract. Though she addressed him as Brother Mingyu, a faint trace of indifference flickered in the depths of her eyes.

Brother Mingyu…

A contract…

Xie Mingyu looked at the woman in front of him, then at the contents of the contract. In an instant, he understood.

No wonder this scene felt so familiar. Wasn’t this exactly the novel he had just been reading?

He had transmigrated into the novel?!

Xie Mingyu quickly grasped the situation.

The young beauty sitting across from him was the female lead of the novel, Lin Qingxue. The older woman was her aunt, Lin Yanru.

According to the novel, Lin Qingxue was the eldest daughter of the Lin family, the most famous campus belle of Dongyang City and a well-known goddess.

Recently, the Lin Group had encountered a financial crisis. It needed a massive investment to survive.

And Xie Mingyu was the eldest young master of the Xie family, the number one wealthy family in Dongyang City. He was known locally as the ultimate rich, tall, and handsome heir.

However, in the novel, he was the number one villain and a true-blue bootlicker. After receiving the Lin family’s plea for help, he had ignored his parents’ objections and rushed to meet Lin Qingxue.

Xie Mingyu knew exactly what would happen next. He would happily sign the contract, yet fail to win the beauty’s heart. After securing the investment, Lin Qingxue would not even spare him a proper glance before leaving with her aunt.

The later plot was even more absurd.

Once the Lin family’s business recovered, they would support the protagonist, Lu Yun, in building his career. Together, they would crush Xie Mingyu in every possible way, eventually driving him to ruin and destroying his family.

And that was not even the worst part.

As the ultimate simp, Xie Mingyu would not seek revenge. In the end, for Lin Qingxue’s sake, he would willingly become Lu Yun’s lackey.

What the hell. Was the author insane?

Such a toxic and brain-dead plot made him furious. As the main villain of the novel, a dignified young master of a top family, how could he be written so pathetically?

If not for sharing the same name, he would have dropped the novel long ago.

Xie Mingyu stared coldly at the two women before him, his eyes dark.

I am Xie Mingyu, a super-rich second-generation heir. And you?

The author may have lost his mind, but did that mean he had too?

He had everything he could ever want. Why would he become her obedient dog?

These days, wasn’t making money more satisfying? Or were the models not beautiful enough?

[Ding!]

At that moment, a crisp sound rang out in his mind.

[Congratulations, Host. The Villain Transformation System has successfully bound to you!]

“Villain Transformation?”

[Correct. After binding, the Host may change the plot according to his own will, seize the money, women, and power that originally belonged to the protagonist, and ultimately rise above him!]

Such a good thing actually existed?

Xie Mingyu felt completely reassured.

He had not expected that he would have the chance to become the protagonist himself. In that case, he would show no mercy.

“Brother Mingyu, please sign quickly. You’ve always taken good care of me. You’ve never refused me before…” Lin Qingxue pushed the pen toward him.

For years, he had done countless things for her. She was extremely confident that he would sign.

“You’re right. In the past, I never refused you. Of course, I won’t refuse this time either.”

“I’ve booked a room at this hotel. After we sign, why don’t we go upstairs and have a private chat…”

Xie Mingyu gave her a wicked smile.

Now this was what a villain should look like.

“Brother Mingyu, you…” Lin Qingxue looked startled. “You’ve always been good to me. Why don’t you sign first? If you want to talk, we can discuss it over the phone…”

In front of her, Xie Mingyu had always been a bottomless bootlicker. With just a slight gesture from her, he would rush forward and do anything she asked.

But now, both his words and demeanor had completely changed.

“Talk over the phone?”

“Sure. Then let’s sign the contract over the phone as well.”

Xie Mingyu tossed the pen onto the table, picked up the contract, and placed it over a candle stand.

Whoosh…

The contract caught fire.

Calmly, Xie Mingyu lit a cigarette.

“What are you doing!”

Lin Qingxue rushed forward, snatched the contract away, and extinguished the flames.

“Sorry. I have something to do. I’ll be leaving.”

Xie Mingyu stood up and turned to leave.

Lin Qingxue and Lin Yanru exchanged stunned looks.

Even the waiter not far away stared in disbelief.

In Dongyang City, everyone knew Xie Mingyu was Lin Qingxue’s number one bootlicker. What had gotten into him today?

The waiter quietly took out his phone and began recording.

“Young Master Xie, please don’t leave. Sit down.”

Lin Yanru hurried after him and pulled him back to his seat.

She turned to Lin Qingxue and shot her frantic looks. “Qingxue, just chat with Young Master Xie for a bit!”

“Young Master Xie, let’s sign the contract first. We can eat and talk at the same time.”

Lin Yanru took another contract from her bag and placed it in front of him.

“You both know how much this contract is worth, right?” Xie Mingyu tapped the document lightly with his finger and sneered.

Did these two really think he was an idiot?

“Of course we know, of course,” Lin Yanru replied quickly.

“And you think that just chatting with me for a few minutes is worth several hundred million in investment from the Xie family?” His tone grew colder.

“Xie Mingyu, what do you mean by this? Didn’t we already agree?” Lin Qingxue, usually so aloof and superior, finally could not hold back her anger.

In her mind, Xie Mingyu’s image as a devoted bootlicker had long been fixed. What was he trying to pull today?

“Agree? Agree to what? Do you really think a few sweet words from you can secure several hundred million from the Xie family?” Xie Mingyu laughed disdainfully.

“You… what exactly do you want?” Lin Qingxue demanded.

“What I want? You already know. If you don’t understand, then my money will go to women who do.”

He stood up again.

The more he looked at Lin Qingxue, the more indifferent he felt. Did she truly not know what he wanted?

Did she think she was some heavenly fairy, that a single word from her could secure massive investment?

What a joke.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host. Villain counterattack successful. Reward granted!]

As soon as he stepped out of the room, the system’s voice echoed in his mind.

“This system is quite efficient.”

Xie Mingyu felt delighted, curious about his reward.

[Congratulations, Host. You have received 100 attribute points. You may distribute them freely to enhance your abilities, such as intelligence, strength…]

The system listed several attributes, including charm.

Not bad at all.

He was already the young master of Dongyang City’s top family. If he improved in other areas as well, he truly had the confidence to crush the protagonist and become the number one protagonist.

Without hesitation, Xie Mingyu allocated all 100 points to charm.

“Qingxue…”

Under the table, Lin Yanru kicked Lin Qingxue lightly.

For the Lin family, this matter was a matter of life and death, tied to their rise or fall.

Lin Qingxue frowned and finally chased after him.

“Brother Mingyu, don’t leave so quickly. I know you’ve always treated me well. Please help our Lin family this time…”

She grabbed his sleeve.

“Help you? Sure. As long as you behave and listen.”

Xie Mingyu wrapped an arm around her slender waist and looked down at her with a wicked, confident gaze.
